~6 speed~ Rear Fogs ~ Shadowline ~ Tow Package ~ OEMMM///S38B38
It was a deal I couldn't pass up and impulse... I've had tons of cars but never a BMW however winter is coming and it isn't practical for me to have 2 cars.
Digita1- It is incredibly rare, faster and rarer than an M5, and possibly 1 of 5 ever built, 330HP, 0-60 in 5 seconds flat, better skidpad numbers (.91g) than any corvette of that vintage, according to Car & Driver the hands down baddest 5 series, and emissions legal to boot!... and try finding another one

Oh wait so its a dinan and the dinan badge deserves an extra 5k added to the price tag of a stock good condition 535i. i understand now.
dont get me wrong the car looks lovely and all. But im sure you can go on a diy project and have the same outcome for alot less.
Maybe 9k if the car had nothing wrong w/ it.

practical eh, so you wouldnt want to trade for a 3000GT VR4?

Geeeeezzzz, that's tempting ....
funny, yesterday i was going to ask you if you were willing to sell it anytime soon...
i could be interested pending a painfully detailed inspection at a stealership. can you post more pics. i.e., lower doors (inside/outside), pinch weld where the quarter panels meet the rear (inside/ouside)....
i was going to bring a pristine b10 biturbo over from europe in the spring but .....

the dinan badge is worth $4,990. the complete sick turbo kit is worth the other $10....
RockJock- Send me a PM with your email address and I can take pics of whatever you like. If you wanted to have someone local come see it, fly in yourself, or pay for a dealer PPI they would all be fine at your expense of courseAs I stated in the listing there are still a couple small things to address hence I am on the low end on the asking price...
Billion- Sorry as much fun as that sounds it looks like I will be getting an 07 Civic Sedan EX 5speed in black or silver so if you have one of those let me know

Since you have made it a point in previous posts here to tell us what a steal the price you paid was, can we assume you'll be passing along your good fortune?

Well I think the asking price is very reasonable, everyone told me $10-15K so I am going on the low end of that. If I do not get any bites here first I will fix the little things left on the to-do list, do a serious restorative detail (engine, undercarage, wheels wells, etc) and see what eBay brings which I would guess to be in the 15K range. Unfortunatly they are so rare I havent found what another has sold for yet...
